Audio Posting part 2. My iphone has a potty mouth

This is Part Two of my exploration of Word Press’s audio posting feature. This sounds like such a brilliant idea. Make a post over your phone how easy is that?

However I should have known it was not for me.

A fact I discovered recently. The post is published immediately. there’s no way to read it over for editing before it fly’s off into cyber space, on the internet, forever readable, for all for eternity.

My experience with voice dictation programs comes from my Iphone. It can be used, for instance when texting. I’ve had problems, it constantly

misunderstands what I’ve just said and replaces my words with it’s own. Words that don’t sound even remotely like what I have just said.

My Idiot iphone has misquoted me a number of times, replacing my words with odd words, resulting in peculiar and strange sentences, nonsensical. A few

times my good ole iphone has even used nifty swear words. Let’s face it, my iphone has a potty mouth. There’s no other way to say it, where’s the soap and

water? Editing has become a absolute necessity, I never know it is going to say.

Making a bad situation even worse is the fact that my iphone has trigger sensitive miniature little keys, which makes it very easy to brush against a

neighboring key. These keys respond to the slightest brush or bump. Of course Murphy’s law is in play here, ” The worst thing that can happen, will happen”

Naturally I frequently hit “SEND” accidently. There goes my text, without editing or an opportunity to find any replace any misquotes.

When this has happened [just imagine this happened to you, how would you feel?] that text could be sent to your friends and family, your employer or even

your Mom. How do you think your dear old mother would enjoy reading that? Yes I’ve had this fun little experiences several times, and that’s enough for

me.

No, I’m not a candidate for audio posting, definitely not.

About Myself & My Approach Art has always played a role in my life, in one form or another. My family is filled with many artist's, so my love of art came naturally. By my teens, I had narrowed my focus to painting. I decided I was going to become a serious painter. I joined the Las Vegas Artist's Guild at 15, the youngest member at that time. I've continued to paint throughout my life. On occasion I've sold my work, but I had more important priorities, I was raising my children, part of that time as a single parent. My circumstances have changed, the kids are grown and I have more time for Art. Art is a form of therapy for me. I was introduced to quilting & fell in love. In time I missed the creative freedom painting made possible. Then I discovered mixed media fiber art, I was home. MY APPROACH TO ART It's the creative process that holds the greatest attraction for me. Starting with a tiny seed of an idea; vague and blurred around the edges, I follow where that leads. My approach is an instinctual one. Generally, I do little pre-planning. I make creative decisions, choices, directions to take as they present themselves. This approach can lead to quite a few changes in the direction the quilt takes. The outcome can come as a surprise. I love that element of surprise! Sometimes everything just comes together & I think to myself, "this is one of my better ones". when that happens, I can’t wait to show someone. I feel like a six year old, running home from school, a drawing in hand, excited to show Mom. At those times. I'm smiling like the Cheshire cat. I’ve had work published in several magazines., which is gratifying. But the most gratifying thing is having clients be really happy with their purchased art quilt.

Hi!
Few days ago I had a problem with my coursework. My deadline was burning. Than I resolved to use services of online writers for money (for the first time in my life). I was very uncertain but this guys surprised me with good quality of text, high performance speed and reasonable prices.
So I decided to recommend them to others.
